giving over your computer to research while you are asleep and getting some compensation for it that can go towards your healthcare doesn't sound too unethical.
security nightmare? perhaps
nah but then you're just shifting costs to electricity
and unless you made a net positive there
it wouldn't be worth it
someone is going to be eating up the electricity
either its a few supercomputers over a long period of time
yeah but YOU pay for the electricity YOU use so any credits you get
the problem is going to be confirming the data
or a few million computers over a shorter period of time
would have to account for that
I also think there is endless data to crunch
otherwise people can just make a client that tells the server ou mined loads of data which could be balls
"buuut I just don't know how it would work" you admit so, so sounds like LOTS of room for mistake. but the stakes are too high for an entire industry (and critical) to be at such high risk from such a wreckless policy or social experiement.... thats the problems w/ the inherent flaws of central planning.... guaranteed mismanagement
compensation is just roughly electricity + a small amount for healthcare
so enough to pay for tylenol in the hospital, got it 😛
so you can only ever really crypto mine with data you already know the answer to
better to trade crypto 😁
that would depend on your definition of mining.
I dont see a long term outlook for crypto
I could be wrong
but I don't
blockchain is the more interesting technology
I just see it as wasteful of actual resources
crypto depends on enough people accepting it in exchange for goods
pewdiepies latest vid was actually pretty good
ya, itll just keep evolving to meet market demands and other requirements to use as a stable decentralized currency with more and more widespread use
the problem with blockchain is the ever increasing size of the chain in data storage
youtube is worse
with the next iterations of blockchain/crypto type tech and beyond
YT is worse lol
but its managed by a company that can pull the plug
BC isn't
for sure..... the blockchain size has already gone parabolic
there's really no way around it if you're using it as a way to historically track and verify every transaction since inception
buuut
transactions cost complications.... liquidity issues ....... still lots of problems to work out
just gonna have to start printing pieces of the ledger and storing them in warehouses
and then tie them to some sort of categorization system
interesting... Charles dickens wrote a peice in 1837 which was a bit like westworld
